A blindside flanker is a forward in the game of Rugby union, usually assigned the number 6, who binds to the scrum on the side closest to the side line.
No, but in South Africa, the blindside flanker (#6) plays a more attacking role than the openside flanker does, whereas everywhere else in the world it is the other way around.
The openside flanker has to mark the oppositions out half and scrumhalf (no 9 and 10) off a scrum. The blindside flanker joins at rucks and the breakdown and guards the blindside of the scrum. They both push in the scrum and as they are the fastest of the forwards they are usually the first people to charge into a ruck and gain or keep posession of the ball. By running lines out of the scrum I think you mean carrying the ball and running around and through opposition players, this is more usual for the number 8 out of a scum.
